Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: The Agricultural Research Service, US Department of Agriculture announces the release of four rice (Oryza sativa L.) genetic stocks: a giant embryo mutant of a long grain rice, designated Genetic Stocks-Oryza (GSOR) 25; albino segregating mutant, GSOR 26; and two indica doubledwarfs, GSOR 27 and 28. These mutants, which may have value as genetic and/or breeding tools, were added to the Genetic Stocks - Oryza (GSOR) Collection at the Dale Bumpers National Rice Research Center, Stuttgart, Arkansas.
